DIRECTORS' REPORT The directors submit their report and financial statements of Agricultural Central Trading Limited for the year ended 30 June 2013. PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES The principal activity of the company is the supply of requisities to farmers, growers and wholesalers. The directors are satisfied with the results for the year. REVIEW OF THE BUSINESS The turnover of the company for the year amounted to 121,827,720 (2012-114,983,240). This resulted in a trading profit of 1,665,009 (2012-1,942,540) from which is deducted a bonus of 762,903 (2012-1,045,803) payable to members. The bonus payable to members for the year to 30 June 2013 was calculated at a rate of 8 per 1,000 (2012-12 per 1,000) of their purchases from the company during the calendar year plus 3% p.a. interest (2011-3%) on their shareholding at 30 June 2013, with a minimum payment of 25. A small number of members owning less than 40 shares will receive a reduced rate of bonus. Accounting convention requires that the two elements of bonus (trading and interest) be treated separately in the profit and loss account. The profit before taxation of 858,203 (2012: 883,338) showing in the profit and loss account is after the trading element of the bonus. The main activities of the company continue to be related to the supply of inputs to farmers. The principal inputs are animal feeds and fertiliser as well as other items used by livestock and cereal farmers. Fluctuating fuel and cereal costs have impacted the prices of some goods supplied by the company and the timing of customers' buying decisions. The company reduces its risk from fluctuating prices by holding minimal unsold stock lines. In the year the company continued to consolidate its position by maintaining its share of the markets in which it operates. Key Performance Indicators The company's main objective is to benefit its members which are measured through: Members trading bonus 8 per 1,000 of purchases 12 per 1,000 of purchases Total members trading bonus 762,903 1,045,803 Number of active members 4,253 4,023 (defined as members that have traded within the financial year) These indicators show the company continues to deliver benefits to its members. 2

DIRECTORS' REPORT Risks and uncertainties Credit Risk - Management has credit control policies in place to monitor risk on an ongoing basis. Credit evaluations are performed on customers requiring credit. Interest rate risk - The company has variable rate working capital facilities and deposit accounts which are exposed to changes in interest rates. Market Risk - Market risk is constantly monitored through the monitoring of industry data and our positioning in relation to our competitors. As detailed above, risk from market fluctuations in price are reduced by low stock holding levels. Liquidity risk - The company monitors its liquidity to ensure it can meet its liabilities as they fall due. This includes ensuring banking lines are available to fund working capital requirements. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS The directors aim to ensure that the company will continue to react to prevailing market conditions and aim to improve sales and profitability in the forthcoming year. RESULTS AND MEMBERS BONUS The profit for the year, after taxation, amounted to 671,583. Particulars of member bonus - interest on shares proposed are detailed in note 10 to the financial statements. DIRECTORS The directors who served the company during the year were as follows: G Hendry (Chairman) P Christensen J L Rowlands N L M Snape J D Hamilton F Carr T G Brown M Corfield M Corfield was appointed as a director on 7 December 2012. 3

DIRECTORS' REPORT STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITOR The directors who were in office on the date of approval of these financial statements have confirmed, as far as they are aware, that there is no relevant audit information of which the auditor is unaware. Each of the directors have confirmed that they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as directors in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that it has been communicated to the auditor. AUDITOR Baker Tilly UK Audit LLP has indicated its willingness to continue in office. By order of the board H M I Fellows Company Secretary 16 October 2013 4

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the directors are required to: a. select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; b. make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; c. state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; d. prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Agricultural Central Trading Limited website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 5

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. Respective responsibilities of directors and auditor As more fully explained in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 5, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board's (APB's) Ethical Standards for Auditors. Scope of the audit of the financial statements A description of the scope of an audit of financial statements is provided on the Financial Reporting Council's website at http://www.frc.org.uk/our-work/codes-standards/audit-and-assurance/standards-and-guidance/ Standards-and-guidance-for-auditors/Scope-of-audit/UK-Private-Sector-Entity-(issued-1-December-2010). aspx. Opinion on the financial statements In our opinion the financial statements: - give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 30 June 2013 and of its profit for the year then ended; - have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and - have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. Opinion on other matter prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 In our opinion the information given in the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements. Matters on which we are required to report by exception We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: - adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or - the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or - certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or - we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of certain fixed assets and in accordance with applicable accounting standards. The company's business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the Business Review on pages 2 to 3. The company's forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, show that the company should be able to operate within the level of its current banking facility. No matters have been drawn to its attention to suggest that renewal may not be forthcoming on acceptable terms. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements. TURNOVER Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for sale of goods and services in the ordinary nature of the business. Turnover is shown net of Value Added Tax, of goods and services provided to customers. AMORTISATION Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an intangible fixed asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: Goodwill - 25% straight line FIXED ASSETS All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost. DEPRECIATION Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or revaluation of a tangible fixed asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: Leasehold Property Improvements - over the period of the lease Plant & Machinery - 10% to 33% straight line Motor Vehicles - 25% straight line Freehold land is not depreciated. 10

ACCOUNTING POLICIES INVESTMENT PROPERTIES In accordance with the Statement of Standard Accounting Practice 19 'Accounting for Investment Properties', investment properties are revalued on a regular basis and are not subject to a depreciation charge. No depreciation is provided for in respect of investment properties in accordance with SSAP 19. Such properties are held for their investment potential and not for consumption within the business. This is a departure from the Companies Act 2006 which requires all properties to be depreciated and the directors consider that to depreciate them would not enable the financial statements to give a true and fair view. Investment properties are deemed to be stated at their market value at the balance sheet date. The Investment Property is included within fixed assets and is professionally valued by Chartered Surveyors on an existing use open market value basis, in accordance with the Statement of Assets Valuation Practice No 4 and the Guidance Notes of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. STOCKS Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. OPERATING LEASE AGREEMENTS Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against profits on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. PENSION COSTS The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme for employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company. The annual contributions payable are charged to the profit and loss account. DEFERRED TAXATION Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date where transactions or events that result in an obligation to pay more tax in the future or a right to pay less tax in the future have occurred at the balance sheet date. Timing differences are differences between the company's taxable profits and its results as stated in the financial statements that arise from the inclusion of gains and losses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements. Deferred tax is measured at the average tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in which timing differences are expected to reverse, based on tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is measured on a non-discounted basis. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities. 11
